While there is no guarantee that a stock will double in value, certain factors can help identify companies with promising growth prospects. One effective approach is to focus on industries that offer growth opportunities even in adverse market conditions. Otherwise, examining fundamentals and ensuring the story fits the current spirit of the times is advisable. We have selected three possible doubling candidates.

New hydrogen hype! More than 100% possible with Plug Power, dynaCERT, ThyssenKrupp Nucera and Nel ASA
While the use of wind and solar has long been established, this step is still to come for hydrogen. The EU's recent decision to produce around 20 million metric tons of the highly flammable fuel by the year 2030 is a major step forward. The aim is to replace natural gas supplies from Russia. This move is expected to help the new energy source establish itself more rapidly within the EU. Currently, 50 billion cubic meters of natural gas are used in Europe to produce so-called grey hydrogen. According to recent studies, a rapid switch to green hydrogen would make it possible to replace around 12% of gas consumption by 2030. Quite impressive! Which stocks will benefit from the approaching boom?

Plenty of upside potential: Plug Power, Standard Lithium, Defense Metals
After Nel ASA exceeded sales expectations in the second quarter, Goldman Sachs recommended the stock as a buy. The price target is NOK 20, offering almost 50% upside potential. Now Plug Power is also recommended as a buy, and analysts see a significantly higher price potential. Experts see nearly 200% price potential for Standard Lithium after the Company published convincing drilling results. Not yet on the screen of analysts is Defense Metals. But this could change soon. The Company is developing an exciting rare earths project in North America, and the preliminary economic valuation of over CAD 500 million gives the stock plenty of upside.

dynaCERT, PayPal, Alibaba - Innovations and old enmities driving growth in digital payment services
Canadian company dynaCERT produces and sells carbon emissions reduction technologies. Working with partner Cipher Neutron, dynaCERT is now in talks with the University of Alberta to advance research projects in green hydrogen technology. Late revenge looms in California. After Elon Musk unceremoniously renamed Twitter to x.com, old feuds from the PayPal era could flare up, which may not bode well for the digital payment service. Meanwhile, Alibaba founder Jack Ma is also planning the next coup in the fintech space with his Ant Group.

BioNTech, Defiance Silver, Vonovia - Waiting for the turnaround
The stock market is not a one-way street, so it happens time and again that companies that initially performed well run into problems, leading to falling prices. After an extended period of underperformance, bargain hunters often step in, seeking the right entry point to profit from a potential turnaround. One announcement can turn the tide and influence the price of a stock. We have selected three candidates where a turnaround could be imminent, provided an appropriate news catalyst exists.

RWE, Regenx Tech Corp., Varta - Under the spell of the numbers
The number season for the first half of 2023 is currently reaching its peak. Google parent Alphabet was able to beat analysts' expectations. In contrast, Deutsche Bank reported lower profits than expected. Due to weaker potash fertilizer prices, K+S AG had to lower its profit forecasts. In addition, there were further surprises that will likely affect future share prices.

Climate protection, yes, but why is the plan not working out? Nikola, Nordex, Saturn Oil + Gas and JinkoSolar in focus
The world often presents itself differently than it really is. In Germany, for example, there is a shortage of oil and gas, which is a major burden for industry and private consumers. Renewable energies now account for 56% of the installed nominal value of all power plants, but unfortunately, they cannot meet baseload demand. If there is little sunshine and no wind, gas and coal-fired power plants must be shifted up a gear to meet energy consumption. Oil, in particular, remains the base material for 100,000 products that contain plastic. So the green dream of complete independence from fossil fuels will not happen for a while. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Raw materials war - is China getting serious? BASF, Mercedes-Benz, Almonty Industries
Energy transition, smartphones, semiconductors, armaments and more are driving our hunger for critical raw materials. But woe betide if China gets serious and severely restricts the export of critical raw materials. There is already a foretaste: the minerals gallium and germanium can no longer be exported without Beijing's approval. China is by far the leading producer of critical raw materials and rare earths. The EU gets 71% of its gallium and 45% of its germanium from China. So it urgently needs alternative suppliers. In the case of tungsten, Almonty Industries could provide supply. The Company is on the verge of starting operations at a huge mine in South Korea. From 2024, sales and profits are expected to climb sharply. Mercedes could also benefit from this. The Stuttgart-based company has just announced plans to invest billions more in electromobility. BASF, on the other hand, is going straight to China.

Attention - Turnaround ahead! TUI, Globex Mining, Vodafone, Deutsche Bank. Look closely now!
In strong upward movements on the stock market, there are always trend stocks that lead the cycle. So far in 2023, GreenTech, IT and AI stocks have consistently produced new highs. Measured by the DAX price index, the market is still 25% below its historic highs, and the NASDAQ 100, the index of technology stocks, is still 700 points or 5% short of its all-time high. However, there are noticeable stocks with promising prospects that have not yet been in the spotlight. Here are some examples.

Manuka Resources, JinkoSolar, BYD - Vanadium, a critical raw material in the energy transition
The energy transition is a crucial step towards a sustainable energy supply. The storage of solar energy and the optimization of batteries for electric vehicles are important topics in this context. Vanadium can play a key role in these areas. The critical raw material is used in the battery industry as a cathode material in redox flow batteries, primarily for energy storage. Whether vanadium will also find its way into batteries for electric vehicles remains to be seen. Originally, the material was used as an important alloying metal in structural and tool steels to refine the steel.
